G27K was installed in 2016 as part of the temporary USArray project and integrated in 2020 into the permanent Alaska network as part of the National Science Foundation-sponsored Alaska Geophysics Arctic Observing Network project. The field team noted during one March visit, "The hut was buried in snow up to the middle solar panel....Snow shoes are recommended." Alders grow in the area, including one that grew tall enough to partially block the solar panels. G27K is generously hosted by our partners at Doyon, Limited. Photo courtesy of Array Network Facility.
